A House of Representatives aspirant of the Nigeria Democratic Congress for the Ughelli North/Ughelli South/Udu Federal Constituency of Delta State, Julius Akbovoka, has petitioned the party’s National Executive Committee to ensure transparency in the handling of the outcome of its primary election.
Akbovoka disclosed this on Tuesday during a press briefing in Abuja, saying the results recorded at the various voting centres should be reflected in the final outcome of the exercise.
The appeal comes days after the NDC distanced itself from various results of its nationwide primaries circulating on social media.
In a statement issued on Sunday, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Osa Director, urged the public to disregard the results, insisting that only the National Executive Council was authorised to announce the outcome of the primaries conducted on May 28 and 29.
The aspirant said he decided to address journalists because he had yet to receive official confirmation
